A scary situation

A six-year old girl in Durham was injured when she was dragged by a Durham County Schools bus.

The girl, Chavon Thorton, suffered a broken arm after her bookbag got caught in the safety arm on the bus. The driver, not realizing Thorton was caught, retracted the arm and drove away.

The bus driver, Rachel Tippins, was fired immediately.
